A Forest Home Family is Searching for Answers after the Sudden Death of Their Teenage Daughter

A Forest Home family is in mourning following the sudden death of their seemingly healthy teenage daughter. Quinetta and Richard  McPherson are enduring pain that no parent should endure after the passing of their daughter on April 1st. Following the circumstances of their daughter’s death the McPhersons are also searching for answers to why her case wasn’t handled with more urgency.

Sania Simmons complained of a headache several days before her passing and was diagnosed with migraines. Soon after she collapsed at the family home and was taken to a local hospital. There the family was told that Sania may have taken too much of her migraine medication and simply needed to sleep the medication off. Four days later and there was no change.

That’s when she was shipped to Mobile at the parent’s request.

In Mobile her parents learned that Sania had actually had a stroke and that blood clots peppered Sania’s brain. Although doctors performed two surgeries in hopes of saving her life she passed away on April 1st an event that the McPhersons believe is largely due to negligence.

The family has set up a go fund me account to help with the sudden cost of funeral expenses. If you would like to donate click here.
